Bridal Guide

Calm and attention to detail, that’s how I love to work. No rushing, no stress. I take the time to carefully work out every detail, so you end up with a hairstyle that feels perfect and looks beautiful. My goal is to enhance your natural beauty with a style that’s entirely you.

Materials used, I provide everything. Any materials used during your trial session, you’re welcome to take home and use again on your wedding day. For loose styles or half-updos, I like working with clip-in extensions, they add extra volume and help curls hold longer. They can also give fine hair just that little bit more. This is of course never a requirement if you’d rather not use them.

The trial session is the perfect moment to find the hairstyle that suits you best, together. The appointment takes place at my home, in a relaxed setting.

Beforehand, I’d love to hear which direction you’re leaning towards. Do you have a Pinterest board or inspiration photos? Feel free to share them ahead of time, that way I can prepare properly and may have a few specific questions ready.

A standard trial session takes about 2 hours. Want to try multiple styles? We’ll plan some extra time for that. The goal is for you to leave feeling completely at ease and fully confident about your hairstyle for the big day.

On your wedding day, I’ll gladly come to your home or venue, so you can start the day relaxed. Timing depends on the chosen hairstyle, on average I plan for 1.5 to 2 hours, which we’ll agree on clearly beforehand. I’m always on-site 30 minutes early to set everything up calmly and start without any stress.

Choose a style that makes you feel like yourself: updo, loose, or half-up? Look for photos that match. Think of a hairstyle that feels like ‘an even more beautiful version’ of you. Look for inspiration from people with similar hair color for a more realistic idea. Want more volume or length? Clip-in extensions are ideal.

In the weeks beforehand, take good care of your hair, especially if it’s frizzy or dry. Extra hydration makes a big difference in texture and end result.

The evening before your trial/wedding day , wash your hair twice with shampoo, preferably without (or with very little) conditioner. Apply a volumizing mousse and comb it through before drying. Avoid hair masks, oils, or serums, they make the hair too smooth.

Blow-dry your hair. Can you brush-dry? Perfect, that adds extra volume at the roots. No experience brush-drying? Just dry the roots upward with a brush, without smoothing products. Don’t use a flat iron: hair that’s too smooth holds curls less well.

On the day itself, bring your Pinterest board or inspiration photos. Wear a white top, ideally with a similar neckline to your wedding dress. Do you have a veil, hair accessories, or jewelry? Be sure to bring them along, that way we immediately get a good sense of the complete look.
